I may have come out with plenty of drivel in my time, that I do not deny. However I have never said that a trail should ride ‘equally’ well in both directions.
You may have taken something out of context there i think..
If you ridden any trail I’ve built, anywhere across Scotland, they are all single direction and would be pretty tough to ride the wrong way round. Maybe I was chatting about pump tracks or something..
Any way, ride them both, AE has it’s plus points but Drumlanrig has plenty too, they’re chalk and cheese. Both seem to get a Marmite reaction on here, but I’ve had a few drum haters to start with who totally love it now that they’ve got more skilled and can actually see what line to ride and carry speed. Yep line choice at a ‘trail centre’…. who’d a thunk it??
If you want a wheel to follow at the right speed book a guided ride, I can show you the best lines and how to levitate the roots 😉
Pow’r tae yer pedals……… rik
